I'm dying to hear the soundtrack for Streets of Rage 4. We've heard tiny snippets in trailers, and also from footage recorded at Gamescom. Today we finally have a full track, albeit one we heard snippets of in the Cherry Hunter reveal trailer. This tune comes from Motohiro Kawashima, who worked on Streets of Rage 2 and 3. It's definitely one of Kawashima's wackier tracks, threading the needle between Streets of Rage 2 and 3's sound, but it's undeniably Streets of Rage.

Unfortunately that sounds awful to me. Hopefully the other tracks are better.

So far terrible looking graphics, a poor new character, and possibly even bad music?! I never thought it possible to be so down on a new Streets of Rage game, but everything shown just looks so bad. And I hate the fact that it's set like 20 years in the future. Eh, I'm a hardcore Streets of Rage fan, so maybe I can't be pleased, but Streets of Rage Remake by Bomber Games was brilliant, so I don't know why Sega didn't hire them, rather than developers who'd never even played the games before.
